Today is the Feast of the Assumption of Our Blessed Mother Mary. This day has always been loved by the children of Mary who try to live each day in the School of Mary. It is a sign to us that someday, through God's grace and our efforts, we too may join the Blessed Mother in giving glory to God. The Assumption of Mary into Heaven gives us hope because it points the way for all followers of Christ to do God's Holy Will. Where Mary now is, we are meant and hope to be, with Divine grace. Mary was taken to heaven, body and soul, after her life on earth was ended because of her Immaculate nature She was protected by God's grace from personal sin.
May we seek to imitate her love, faith and obedience. Mary chose, with the God’s grace, to preserve her God-given purity throughout her whole life. She knew no sin and was taken, body and soul, to be with the Father and her Son. She stood by Christ under the Cross and stands by Him bodily at the right hand of the Father.
The Queen stands at your right hand, in gold of Ophir. Psalm 45:10
Blessed is she who trusted that the Lord's words to her would be fulfilled. May we see heaven as our final goal and come to share her glory. Blessed Mother Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth, pray for us and all those for whom we pray.
